My wife and I both experienced those intense shivering spells.
It's a result of fever.
We both found the only solution, despite the fever, was to bundle up warm with an electric blanket.
The shivering passed in minutes after that.
Yup, my wife and I both tested positive.
We had the testing kits that our daughter ordered for us.
Started out with high fever (sometimes reached 40C), chills, lost appetite and really, really sore throat.
After 6 days I've finally got rid of the sore throat which made it difficult to swallow even water.
I didn't eat anything for several days and even now only consume in a day what would be less than I would normally have in a single meal.
Weight dropped 5 kg in just 3 days.
That's a bonus if I can keep it off.
Another plus was not expected.
Back in the spring and summer I was complaining about difficulty breathing.
Doctors tried all kinds of tests to determine why but to no avail.
One phase of Covid recovery involves coughing up a lot of phlegm.
That's mostly finished now and my breathing is better than it has been for months.
It now feels more like a mild cold.

You may never get those test results.
I was tested on the 6th for a flight on the 7th.
Never got results, but the hospital told me I was in one of those groups where somebody was positive.
I've never found out and never got any other response.
News from a pilot friend at China Eastern:
"Latest news, Kunming Airport has just canceled the 48h covid test requirement."

No results found.
Had my first ever visit to Slice of Heaven last night for a group party. Barbara recognized me as a newcomer and immediately came to welcome me and introduce herself.
While speaking with her at the counter, a server walked past with a pizza for one table. The aroma immediately caught my attention. It was awesome.
Our group shared 4 different pizzas. All were amazing. I think the sauce really makes the difference since it was very flavourful. I also put back to cups of cappuccino. I guess they must have fixed problems noted in other reviews because I found it to be quite good.
If I lived closer I would be a regular here.
Chinese college freshmen increasingly unfit
发布者In the past few years there has been an increased reliance on cars and e-bikes. I can see the change in only 5 years. Where people used to walk or take real bicycles they are now reliant on machinery.
In that same 5 years span I've seen a huge increase in the number of fast food outlets around Kunming.
It would appear that China is going the way of North America with poor diets and lack of exercise.
Golden Week: Planes, trains and especially automobiles
发布者The low number of driving related deaths over the week doesn't surprise me. With traffic so congested and moving so slowly (or not at all), it's easy to have a "fender bender" but more difficult to have a fatality.
Traffic in China would move so much more quickly if people would stay in a lane and drive in a straight line instead of going up the road like a snake!
Truncated subway Line 1 to open New Year's Eve
发布者@tallamerican. 4 years to build? Not bad. Up in Toronto they can't even decide what to do in 4 years. As for train service, the liner from Vancouver to Toronto has been know to arrive 23 hours late!
Proposed hotel tax eyes Dianchi rehab
发布者10 Yuan is not a big amount and I would have no problem with it, but Mr Xiao is right, the polluters should be paying - BIG!
Also, is there any guarantee that the tax collected would actually go where it's supposed to, or will it all go to administering the tax collected. I have only Canadian habits to reference on that point, but that's what happens in Canada, eh!
Kunming proposing congestion fee, more public parking
发布者Lack of enforcement of the laws just serve to reinforce people's beliefs that what they are doing is OK. It's made worse by the fact that police and military are exempt from the traffic act and others simply follow their bad example. Last year we actually witnessed a hit and run accident, where a police car sideswiped a bus then promptly left the scene.
At the end of November I made my first ever visit to Hong Kong. What a refreshing change! Drivers followed the rules, as did pedestrians. The only people walking on the don't walk signs were from mainland China. At bus stops, people formed orderly queues as they arrived instead of everyone trying to be first. With strict adherence to the rules the traffic moved so much better!
I also noticed that people in Hong Kong don't use their horns much, as opposed to Kunming where somebody will be honking at 5:00 a.m. when there is only one other vehicle on the road!
